A very nice , and very interesting , antique photo , being auctioned on eBay , with 2 days remaining .

The seller seems to have many authentic items from Russia for sale .

I have no further information .

But that photo must be extremely rare ! My guess would be 1910 . It took trends ( like bicycle racing ) a bit longer to penetrate into Russia . But look at those handlebars . Those look fairly trendy and modern , for that time . Or actually fairly trendy and modern for today also !
